ASQUINI, Sabrina Emilia. Christian Democrats and Socialists: labor organization and Sunday law among dependents of Commerce in the city of Buenos Aires (1902-1905). Trab. soc. [online]. 2019, n.32, pp.387-411. ISSN 1514-6871.

This article explores the origin and development of the Dependents of Commerce's Union, a very important, numerous and dynamic worker's guild settled in Buenos Aires city. It was the first attempt to form a guild by the Christian democrats. The early intervention of the Socialist Party is another important element to consider. Because through this experience we can analyze the different tendencies present in the labor movement which were competing between themselves to organize to the workers. Finally, the article shows the multiple fights and claims done bay this trade union to get the Sunday law, between 1902-1905, help us to observe Christian democracy's strategies in order to recover lost social space by the Catholic Church during XIX century.

Keywords : Dependents of Commerce's Union; Socialist Party; Christian democracy; Sunday law.
